SDH 2010 - Supporting the Digital Humanities

NEERI 2010 - Networking Event for the European Research Infrastructures
21 October 2010, Vienna University of Technology
*********************************************************
SDH2010 is the first conference that is jointly organized by the CLARIN
and DARIAH initiatives, which are building the European research
infrastructure for the humanities and related disciplines. SDH2010 aims
to bring together infrastructure providers and users from the
communities involved with the two infrastructure initiatives. The
conference will consist of a number of topical sessions where providers
and users will present and discuss results, obstacles and opportunities
for digitally-supported humanities research. Participants will be
encouraged to engage with honest assessments of the intellectual
problems and practical barriers in an open and constructive atmosphere.
SDH2010 is organized together with NEERI2010, the second European
networking event for research infrastructures. Whereas SHD2010 will
focus on the types of research made possible by research computing,
NEERI2010 will focus on the technical, architectural and social
challenges of building the infrastructure.
NEERI2010 is the second Networking Event of its kind, providing a
follow-up to NEERI2009 held in Helsinki. The goal of NEERI2010 is to
exchange ideas on a number of topics relevant for research
infrastructures and to clear common ground on the further development
and application of these topics. NEERI focuses on what we share and what
we can learn from each other. Examples of such commonalities are
architectural issues, communication with users and integration of
services and tools.
SDH 2010 will have a special focus on the humanities and social
sciences, while NEERI will focus more on general aspects of research
infrastructure development across all disciplines, including the natural
and life sciences.
Registration is open. Further information is available on the conference
